LIS 7008 - Information Technologies
Summer 2009 - Section 02

Caution: this is a core course of the MLIS program; it aims to fill American Library Association's technological requirements on information professionals and to lay a technological foundation to many advanced courses at SLIS, therefore is very intensive and extensive, even in a regular Spring or Fall semester. Since the summer semester is very short, you are expected to spend significant amount of time in this course (see the bottom of Course Description), otherwise you will very likely fail. Simply put, this is NOT an easy summer crash course. Actually you will probably have to manage your time, intelligence, and emotion really effectively in order to pass this challenging summer course.
